Josh was nice!

Well, toady we had a very brave nice guy named Josh who is in a wheelchair come and tell us a little bit about his story and how his life is in the wheelchair. First he started off by introducing himself to use and telling use about a disease that involves his muscles and him not being able to move on his own or even walk so he is in a wheelchair for the rest of his life. He told us that he has a nurse with him all day and one who is with him at nighttime. He said that he did not feel that alot of things were unfair to people like him and that he was okay with his condition and basically he was living life for what it is. So the whole point of this sesion was to find out what kind of things he think that could be approved for people in wheelchairs at parks in Philly. He finsaid that it was hard for him to be on benches and to drink from out of water fountains,and he also said that he could'nt role over gravil and things of that nature. So, we were trying to figure out ways to solve these problems. I myself would give him his props because alot of people with conditons such as his don't always accept it and dont want to talk about it but, he must be different because he seemed e to me!!
